Chaturbate is one of the biggest cam platforms, built on a token economy. Its browser broadcaster is a single plain camera — routing through the external encoder option with free SplitCam unlocks multi-camera scenes, overlays and filters on the same token-based stream.
SplitCam is free live-streaming software for Windows and macOS. Download it and run the installer — no signup, no card, no watermark, no time limit. It is the encoder that sends your video to Chaturbate.
Add your webcam in SplitCam, then layer in a second camera or your phone, overlays and beauty or AI-background filters. Chaturbate's broadcaster shows one flat camera — your composed scene replaces it.
On Chaturbate, click Broadcast Yourself to open the My Broadcast page, then click View RTMP/OBS broadcast information and stream key. Your key is shown as your broadcast token — copy it. It works like a password; never post it publicly.
Open Stream Settings and paste the broadcast token into the custom RTMP key field. Chaturbate has huge headroom — set 1080p at 3,500–6,000 Kbps with a 2-second keyframe.
Press Go Live in SplitCam — your scene reaches the room in about 10 seconds. Chaturbate's low-latency delivery keeps tips and reactions in sync with what you do.
Chaturbate uses your broadcast token in place of a generic stream key. Treat it like a password — reset it if it ever leaks.
Chaturbate's own RTMP ingest accepts up to 4K, 60 fps and a very high bitrate ceiling — quality is limited by your upload, not the platform. Use a 2-second keyframe interval.
Chaturbate delivers your stream over low-latency HLS — roughly 2–4 seconds glass-to-glass — so viewer tips and reactions stay in step with what you do on cam.
Chaturbate accepts very high bitrates, so you'll be pushing a lot of data — a wired Ethernet link keeps that stream stable where Wi-Fi would drop frames.
Chaturbate lets you broadcast before going public — do a short private check of camera, audio and overlays first.
Yes — Chaturbate officially supports external encoders and has its own "How do I set up OBS?" support article. Activate it with "Use External Encoder to Broadcast" in your broadcast settings.
Broadcast Yourself → My Broadcast → View RTMP/OBS broadcast information and stream key. The key is your broadcast token.
Chaturbate's RTMP ingest accepts up to 3840×2160 (4K) and 60 fps with a 2-second keyframe interval — far more headroom than most cam platforms.
3,500–6,000 Kbps at 1080p is plenty. Chaturbate's ceiling is very high, so your upload speed is the real limit — run SplitCam's speed test first.
Free software. No watermark, no signup. Set up once, go live in one click.
